Stateless
Maryland Premiere
USA 2014; Documentary; Director: Michael Drob
Language: Russian with English subtitles, 86 min.
In the late 1980’s, on the brink of the collapse of the Soviet Union, tens of thousands of Soviet Jews were finally allowed to leave the USSR. What these people did not expect was that their final destination, America, no longer welcomed them with open arms. In 1988, American policy suddenly changed and thousands of Soviet Jews were stranded in Italy.
Guest Speaker before the film: Michael Drob, Director of Stateless
